Does it change the way the DCC feels?

That looks way better. Is that a 30mm drop?
I showed this to the Mrs and her first comment was "well now the front bumper is just going to get scratched up".
Keen to know if this is the case. My R36 was notorious for scraps on the underside of the bumper with it's longer nose, but I'm hopeful this isn't the case with the Tigs, once lowered. I've certainly mastered the art of taking dips and driveways at angles to avoid scuffs, and I've come to enjoy not having to worry about this in the Tig, and so has the Mrs.

Just over 2 inch drop in height, no front bumper issues as overall still higher than a sedan. I was driving near a new Audi SQ5 yesterday and I was slightly lower..

ACC firmer ride in normal which I like as I used to drive in sport all the time as I dont like the floaty nature in normal.

Car used to lift the front end and bounce around under hard accleration, not anymore, grips alot better under acceleration.

1 week on no issues with the H&R springs.

Car rides so much flatter, gets power down to the ground so much better.

If an actual Tig R comes out these springs would come standard.

How good was the SQ5 to drive? (I assume the latest version with the V6T)

Does it still rise a bit under acceleration or stays completely flat?

Do the lower springs affect load carrying capacity or towing ability?

Have not driven my car for near 6 weeks, get it back next week....

Oh wow!

Didn't realise it was out of use for so long. Was damage worse than originally thought?
I bet you are also looking forward to getting it back
